Castleford Tigers vs Hull KR Prediction

Hull KR made it 13 wins from 14 in Super League last week, destroying Catalans Dragons 68-6, racking up a whopping 12 tries in the process. Willie Peters’ side remains an unstoppable train right now and unfortunately for Castleford Tigers, they are next in the firing line. The Tigers were victorious last time out over Hull FC but to get the better of Hull KR will prove a significantly more daunting assignment.

Two of Castleford’s last three home fixtures have seen them score less than ten points, which doesn’t bode well when considering how many points they would likely need to put up to give themselves a chance of success here. Ultimately, the class of Hull KR should tell and overwhelm the hosts, forcing an away win.
